AMP page items

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 20

Hello. I have several sites with the Newspaper theme, and they are set up with the AMP plugin and mobile theme.

On a new site I just started building, it seems that the mobile AMP pages act differently than before. The mobile AMP pages are cluttered with a lot of items that should not be there, like breadcrumbs, category link, author name, number of visits/comments?, tags, previous/next, author card, like button /share, etc. I cannot find a way to remove them, other than setting up custom code.
Example: https://radiomannen.no/p6-rock/?amp

This has never been a problem on any of my other sites:
Example: https://playpager.com/easy-chess/?amp
Example: https://kveldsavisen.no/torden-film/?amp

I have obviously done something different on the new site, but cannot figure out what. I need all the items mentioned to be gone. I have not added any custom code to the other sites, and cannot see why only the new site got this problem.

Also, the “latest articles” section at the bottom of the page only shows 3 links and no images. (It should show 12 links with images, according to my settings.)

I have license/purchase code for all sites.
Thanks,
John

P.S.
I use the exact same bit of custom css-code to set the dark theme on all sites. But these are only color settings:
#td-outer-wrap {background-color: #000;}
.block-title,
.td_module_mob_1 .entry-title a,
.page-nav .current,
.td-page-title,
.td-category a,
.entry-title,
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6,
.td-author-name a,
.author-box-wrap .td-icon-font {
color: #fff!important;
}
.td-post-content {
color: #e9e9e9!important;
}

Hi,

I think that this is because on the new website you are not using the mobile theme plugin with the amp plugin, with this option -> https://i.imgur.com/2YjTNaq.png

Please check and let me know the results!
Thank you!

No, I am using AMP (“Uses the responsive version on the small screen devices and Mobile Theme only on AMP”), just like on this site:
https://playpager.com/easy-chess/?amp
The problem only occurs on AMP pages (mobile theme). Why do all the extra items (breadcrumbs, tags, author, etc.) show up on the mobile AMP theme?

And can you please read my initial message before replying? It seems your answer is for a completely different issue. My problem is about how the AMP mobile pages are displayed. Not whether they show up or not.
Thanks.

Hi,

The mobile theme plugin is a different theme only for mobile version, if you are using it the mobile version or amp version or both (depends the option you are using) will look different from the responsive version (desktop version).
Also I checked the amp versions and the extra items (breadcrumbs, tags, author, etc.) are removed.

Thank you for your understanding!

Thanks for replying and thanks for the great theme. I understand that you are busy.
But I beg you: Can you please read the support issue before answering?
I know very well that the mobile theme is a different version only for mobile. I have used this system on several sites for years. That is not the problem. On this site for instance, I use the mobile theme only on AMP pages.

The extra items on the AMP page was removed when you “checked” because I fixed them with custom code, due to the fact that you did not answer my yesterday 4pm reply. I have removed my custom code now so you can check again:
https://radiomannen.no/nrk-p1/?amp

Please, please review the full support inquiry before answering, and I will be as specific as i can:
The unwanted extra items (breadcrumbs, tags, author, prev/next, author box, etc) do not appear on the mobile AMP pages on my other sites ( example: https://playpager.com/domino-game/?amp ). They only appear on this new site. On the other sites I have no custom code to remove the items, yet they are gone. Why do they show up and clutter the pages on the new site and not the old ones?

I Know that I can remove them by entering my own custom code, but it is really bad practice to use more code than absolutely necessary. And it is a sign that something is wrong when otherwise identical codebases act differently.

Question #2
As I explained in my support message:
“the ‘latest articles’ section at the bottom of the page only shows 3 links and no images. (It should show 12 links with images, according to my settings.)”
Can you please adress this issue too? (I know that I can remove the section with code if I want to)

Thank you for your service, and all the best.
John

Hi,

1. I think that you do not make the same settings in theme panel for both website, please uncheck in theme panel the elements/items that you do not want to have on your website from here -> https://i.imgur.com/v2jc72M.png and from here -> https://i.imgur.com/gF43X0m.png these will reflect on your amp version and remove the elements/items you do not want to have.

2. In order to achieve 12 articles for related articles you need to select them in theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/Zu0L8U0.png

Thank you for your understanding!

Are you serious?
After the last update, all those setting panes were removed.
Please see the images:

Hi,

No, the settings are still in the theme, but now these are no longer in tagDiv Composer and were moved in tagDiv Standard Pack, to have access to them, please activate it-> https://i.imgur.com/nl8xQ2f.png after you done with the settings you can disable the plugin.

Thank you!

Thanks for replying.
This is pretty vital information. In this case, the users who faithfully have followed your guidelines for updating the sites will not be able to make adjustments to the mobile theme, because they do not have the standard pack any more.
As long as the mobile theme is dependent on the standard pack to be adjusted, you must either make that clear in the documentation or move those settings to the mobile theme settings menu.
Thank you for understanding, and good luck.

Yes, we are thinking to both of your suggestions.
If there is anything else, just let us know!

Have a nice day!
